Reproducibility of tract metrics for both proximal (A) and extended (B) tract segmentations and paired t-test p-values for comparison of proximal and extended metrics (C). σbs: between-subject standard deviation; σws: within-subject standard deviation; COV: coefficient of variation; ICC: intraclass correlation coefficient.
FA: fractional anisotropy; ADC: apparent diffusion coefficient; VOL: tract volume; TDI: tract density.
CC: genu of the corpus callosum; Ci: cingulum; PT: pyramidal tract; OR: optic radiation; AF: arcuate fasciculus.
